Kybella Injections — Orlando’s Leading Double Chin Treatment
If you’re searching for an effective, nonsurgical way to reduce submental fullness, known as a double chin, Kybella may be the solution you’ve been looking for. At Hillcrest Plastic Surgery, we offer personalized Kybella injections in Orlando to help you achieve a more defined jawline without surgery and with minimal downtime.
What Is Kybella?
As the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment, Kybella is designed to target, reduce and destroy fat cells beneath the chin. Its active ingredient is synthetic deoxycholic acid. This molecule naturally occurs in the body and helps break down dietary fat. Kybella destroys fat cells when injected into targeted areas. These cells are then safely metabolized and eliminated by the body.
Once these fat cells are destroyed, they cannot return. This means that results are permanent and long-lasting.
Why Choose Kybella for Double Chin Treatment?
Many adults struggle with submental fullness due to genetics, aging, or weight fluctuations, even when diet and exercise have made progress elsewhere. A double chin can impact facial balance and make you appear older or heavier than you are. The double chin treatment, Kybella, offers a minimally invasive alternative to liposuction for patients seeking natural-looking improvements to their chin area.
Additional benefits include no incisions or anesthesia, short treatment appointments, customizable treatment plans and permanent fat reduction once your treatment series is complete. Many patients appreciate the ability to enhance their profile without disrupting their daily routine.
How Does Kybella Work?
During your Kybella treatment, a trained specialist administers a series of small injections into the submental area. These injections deliver deoxycholic acid directly into targeted fat pockets, where it begins breaking down unwanted cells.
Your provider carefully maps the treatment area to ensure accurate dosing and optimal contouring while maintaining facial harmony.
What to Expect From Your Treatment Plan
Kybella is not a one-time treatment for most patients. A series of sessions is typically recommended to achieve ideal results. Treatments are spaced at least one month apart, with most patients requiring between two and six sessions, depending on the amount of fat present and individual aesthetic goals.
Results develop gradually as your body naturally processes and eliminates destroyed fat cells. Many patients begin to notice visible improvement after their second session, with optimal contouring appearing several weeks after the final treatment.
Recovery and Aftercare
One of the benefits of receiving your Kybella treatments at our Orlando, FL office is minimal downtime. Temporary swelling, bruising, firmness or numbness under the chin is common and expected following treatment.
These effects indicate the body’s natural response to fat breakdown and typically resolve on their own. Most patients return to normal activities shortly after their appointment.
Is Kybella Right for You?
Kybella could be the perfect treatment if you have moderate to severe submental fullness and are looking for a nonsurgical solution that won't disrupt your routine.
Determining candidacy starts with a consultation at Hillcrest Plastic Surgery. Book your appointment or consultation to see if Kybella is right for you.
